Holy Thirty-Eight Martyrs of Thrace

Holy 38 Martyrs of Thrace (Feast Day - August 23)

Verses

Three times ten martyrs bore the sword,
Having with them a simple eight fellow contestants.

The Holy Thirty-Eight Martyrs of Thrace met their end by a sword.

These may be the same as the Holy Martyrs Severus and Memnon and the Thirty-Seven Martyrs of Thrace commemorated on August 20th.

Support the Mystagogy Resource Center

For more than fifteen years, the Mystagogy Resource Center has been a labor of love dedicated to making the riches of the Orthodox Christian tradition freely available to people throughout the world.

Thousands of articles, translations, lives of saints, theological reflections, historical resources, and daily materials have been published across this ministry’s websites, all offered free of charge for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Orthodox faith.

This is a one-man ministry that requires countless hours of research, translation, writing, editing, and maintenance each day.

If this work has spiritually benefited, educated, encouraged, or inspired you in any way, I humbly ask you to consider supporting this ministry financially.

Generous annual and monthly benefactors make possible the continuation and expansion of this work for the future, for without such support this ministry cannot exist.

Every contribution, whether large or small, truly makes a difference and is deeply appreciated. May God bless you abundantly for your generosity and prayers.
